This is Chelsea, and it looks like she’s going to make it through to the end of the week.

Until very recently, this wasn’t the case – as she was due to be put to sleep this Thursday.

Chelsea had grown so depressed that she couldn’t even bear to turn round to face prospective owners from her shelter – based in San Bernardino, California – and the outlook for the dog wasn’t looking good.

But after the Save SBC Shelter Pups Facebook page told its followers of her plight, thousands spread the message online and now it seems that Chelsea will have a new home from Thursday, instead of being put to sleep.

One dog-lover who got in touch with the shelter with a view to adopting Chelsea said on reddit that she had been told the dog had behavioural problems.

‘They let me know that the dog had lashed out and tried to bite some of the people at the shelter,’ they said.

But it seems despite her issues, some people are in the position to give Chelsea another chance.

The Save SBC Shelter Pups page has now updated those concerned for Chelsea’s fate by saying that there are plenty of people who want to adopt her.

‘Thank you all for your help, Chelsea will be fine!’ the statement read, before the page urged Chelsea’s fans to focus their attentions on the other dogs who need help.
